Unlike most toning shoes, which have rounded bottoms or balance pods, these sneakers are built with weighted soles. Since you’re schlepping up to 2 pounds more per shoe, you’ll burn more calories when walking in them.

But, for all of you at home who didn’t make it onto the show and still want to shed excess pounds, trainer Jennifer Cohen talks exclusively to OK! about her weight loss tips, gym essentials, and how she aids the show’s determined contestants to their fitness goals!

"Yes, of course I love shoes. How can I not? I haven't met many women who don't. I miss the shoes I could wear before having kids. My feet grew longer (and wider!) with each pregnancy and to date, have not returned to their former size. I fear my size 7.5-8 shoes are a permanent thing of my past. RIP, old shoes. R.I.P.
